Atul Bose, the founder of the Indian Academy of Art, was a twentieth-century Indian artist from West Bengal. The artist laid emphasis on three important components of painting—colour, line, and tone—and the manner in which he deployed them is to be commended in this untitled painting of a mountain scenery. A harmonious blend of light and tone lent a realistic quality to his canvases, while poetically communicating the mood of the scene as well. Here, the orange light of the sun on the topmost ranges of a snow-capped mountain leaves the lower ranges shrouded in shadows.
